My name is Kyle Quincey, and I am campaigning for the District 2 seat on the Levy County School Board. I believe that I have the unique blend of education, experience, and investment that make me a highly qualified candidate to serve on our School Board.
I am a lifelong resident of Levy County, and a 1989 graduate of Chiefland High School. After high school, I earned an Associate of Arts degree from Santa Fe Community College. After earning my AA degree, I transferred to Florida State University where I earned a Bachelor's and Master's Degree in exceptional student education. When I completed my education, I accepted a job teaching ESE at Bronson Middle/High School. During my eight and a half years as a teacher, I was able to be involved in many aspects of the school ranging from administrative duties to athletics. I was fortunate enough to work under several administrators who trusted me to serve as a substitute administrator in the event of their absence.
While at BHS, I continued my education by taking multiple classes towards a certification in educational leadership. During my time at BHS, I also served as middle school baseball coach. These opportunities at BHS give me a very in-depth view of what it takes for a school to function properly from the administration to the classroom to the athletic programs.
After eight and a half years of working with
some very talented and wonderful people at BHS, I was given the opportunity to follow in my father, Jack Quincey’s, footsteps. I am currently an insurance agent at Nature Coast Insurance in Williston. I have also been blessed to serve as a trustee at Central Florida Electric Cooperative for the past seven years where I currently serve as vice president. The experience gained by serving on this board is incredible. As a trustee, it is my responsibility to approve a multi-million dollar budget and make planning decisions that will guarantee that CFEC will continue to provide reliable service to all its customers. I also have to work in conjunction with CFEC staff and eight other board members to insure our service and financial goals are met.
I have been married to my wonderful wife, Valerie, for the past 15 years, and God has blessed us with two wonderful children. Grant is nine years old and a third grader at Chiefland Elementary. Grace is seven years old and in first grade at CES. Our family is a member of Pine Grove Baptist Church where I serve as an adult Sunday school teacher. Grant and Grace are very active in the Chiefland Area Athletic Association where Valerie and I have had the opportunity to coach them. My greatest investment is my family and specifically Grant and Grace.
Through my nine years of experience in education, I understand what it takes for a school system to function efficiently and effectively. I want to use my knowledge and experience to insure that your greatest investment is protected. My family and I are very excited about the future, and we look forward to meeting you and your family during this campaign season.
